Till Death || Loki

Chapter 5

He wraps his arm around me and pulls me in his chest. I close my legs and I can already feel how sore I'm gonna be for the next couple of days. He takes my hair out of my face and puts them behind my ear.

"You broke my containing spell on your powers, didn't you?" he asks as he looks me in the eyes

"How do you know?" I ask

"Your eyes glowed purple when you reached your climax the second time" he answers with a smirk across his face

"They did?" I ask surprised, because this is actually the first time someone says that to me

"Yes" he answers

"I-- I'm sorry" I say avoiding eye contact

"You don't have to be sorry. It was... It was adorable" he says causing me to smile.
"Is this the first time that happened?" he asks

"I'm not gonna tell you because you are already arrogant enough" I say causing him to laugh

"So that's a yes" he says satisfied and I roll my eyes

"Ok, let's not argue about sex too" I say and he nods.

He keeps his one hand wrapped around my waist and rests it on my side. On that right spot, under the shirt, it was one of my scars so I try to move his hand.

"I saw them..." he says and I stop

"I hoped you wouldn't notice" I reply avoiding looking at him

"You were naked, darling. I pay attention to my partner, whoever that might be" he says as he rubs his hand over the scar. Even though I'm covered, it's like he remembers exactly where they are.
"However, I didn't see a scar from when I stabbed you in the chest" he adds causing me to chuckle

"I told you that I healed that in seconds, no scars. When I can't heal them by magic, that's when they heal like normal human injuries and leave scars" I say

"Your one weakness?" he asks

"Yeah" I sign

"So Hydra did that to you? The Winter Soldier?" he asks, still rubbing his hand over the scar

"Yes. He is their most successful experiment. Their personal assassin" I explain

"Hm... really?" he says looking down at me

"Don't get ideas" I say and he smiles.
"Hey, can I try something?" I ask, grabbing his dagger

"What are you doing?" he asks, frowning his eyebrows

"Asgardian skin is three times as dense as human skin so I wanna test if I can heal it" I explain

"Oh, this is absurd" he says

"Don't be a baby" I say and I create a cut on his chest. He groans and looks at me. It wasn't a stab, just a deep scratch.

I let the dagger down and I put my hand on the cut. I close my eyes and my hand start glowing purple
"Sanare contritos. Sanare contritos. Sanare contritos" I whisper but I could feel that it wasn't enough.

I had to put twice the usual effort and perform the spell almost three times to heal the cut completely.

I take my hand back and I open my eyes. "That was a bad idea" I admit

"I told you" he says

"If it was deeper, I don't know if I'd be able to do it. I really need a recharge" I say

"A recharge?" he asks

"Yes. Every about 100 years, my powers need a small recharge from a powerful source" I explain
